Leonard Auction, Jun 5, 2025. 206 lots, estimates 100 - 600 $.


Leonard Auction - Whether it was snaring a defining never-to-be-repeated moment in the split-second frenzy of a live performance or slowly crafting a nuanced personality study in his portrait studio, Robert Matheu considered his photographs to be collaborations with his subjects—and collaborated with hundreds of distinguished artists over the years. Robert compiled a comprehensive genre-spanning historical compendium whose iconoclastic images are as revealing as they are diverse. 

The Leonard Company is thrilled to bring 200 lots of Rock and Roll photography and ephemera from the Estate of Robert Matheu to auction. Join us on what would have been Matheu’s 70th birthday, June 5, 2025 for a celebration of his body of work through the decades. Music legends represented in the auction include Led Zeppelin, Iggy Pop & The Stooges, Keith Richards, David Bowie, George Harrison, Johnny Cash, Pretenders, Brian Wilson, Cheap Trick, White Stripes, B.B. King, Nirvana, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, Red Hot Chili Peppers, AC/DC, Joan Jett and so many more!
